scientific method to me

Scientific method is the process of doing a science experment in certain steps. The last time I used the scientific method was my freshman year while I was in HSTA. I was trying to see how much ecoli was in the water at two parts of Four Pole Creek. Ecoli is basically bateria that grows in water and is very harmful to humans to drink. I took samples from the water at two different sights. Then I tested the water to see how many of the normal creatures still lived in the water. Lastly I tested the water for any harmful elements and wrote down my results.


First I formed a hypothesis. Then I gathered the right materials. I tested the water in the two different sites and gathered data. Finally I came up with my conclusion that there was a fair amount of ecoli.
